When one fan asked what it was like to have his kids on the ski trip with him, Donal revealed: “Honestly it’s not easy and it’s pretty full on but you do get lovely memories!

“The boys loved the pool and the water park and the sledding too.”

Going on to reveal that he and his wife had already done a lot of travelling with their boys, Donal offered up some tips on travelling with the kids, explaining that lots of snacks and sticker books are the key as well as iPads and blankets in case they “treat you to a nap”.

Speaking about the kids’ experience skiing, Donal added: “I definitely think Ollie was just at the right age to start and he’s two and a bit.

“But still a lot of work - get them as close to the ski lift and you’re away.

“Oliver actually had some weird natural baby balance and no fear.”

The 35 year old chef donned some colourful outfits when on his trip, leaving his fans in stitches as he posed and pouted on the snowy slopes.

Showing off his ensembles on Instagram, he received a slew of comments about his looks.

One fan wrote: “No chance of anyone missing you in a snowstorm in those getups.”

Another joked: “Absolutely love this... Donal Ski-han... brilliant.”

Another commented: “I am only here for the incredible ski gear.”
